I plumb forgot about the experiment!  Rev, a dozen days have passed since the last update on the rum and the beeswax, any change, or did you drink all the rum?

Been watchin the experment when all of a sudden, for me anyway, it hit me  that when you (rev.), coat the inside of a horn yer not puttin a chunk of beewax in there. Yer COATING it. Been guilty as some others of starin' at the glass fer hours on end  , and haven't noticed a ripple.
Hows about ya try it again, this time, Get a piece of horn (a throw away or chunk of scrap), plug the bottom jest like usual, seal the joint between the plug with beeswax pour in some good high octane as before. Put, hang, place or whatever. Just put sumtin under it so you can tell if it starts ta leak. Notice I said  if not when.

I'm tryin ta be neutral here

yeah, but shouldn't really matter should it?   because the beeswax will be surrounded on all sides by the alcohol, instead of against one side of it.   Only difference would be the thickness of the beeswax.  here's another thought, you'd usually be carrying a rum horn around with the liquid sloshing against the sides, there you'd have agitation.  we could get all kinds of experiments going.   but i think i'll stick with Rev's.

Good idea! I will do just that tomorrow!
